Elite Personal Search Complaint

Bait and Switch

In a moment of weakness, I agreed to the 1 year/5 date contract with the Boston office of Elite. My 2-hour in person interview seemed to go well and she convinced me that I was just the kind of person that was a great fit for their service. I walked out, having paid the fee in full and signing their iron-clad contract, which she did not go over while I was sitting there trying to read it. She did say that in the state of MA, there is a 3-day rescind period in case I changed my mind during that time. Problem was, I didn't get to 'meet' my matchmaker until after the 3 day period had expired and that's when I realized I had been sucked into a scam. The matchmaker was a complete light weight who asked all the same questions Susie had asked me, and was obviously reading off a list of standard questions. To make a long story short, I contacted the CA headquarters complaining and was told basically, "too bad". I was then given a new match maker named "Summer" (yeah, right), who matched me with 3 guys who all said 'no', for reasons I was not told. Then, without notice, I was switched to a 3rd matchmaker, named Emily who has just started with the Boston office. She indicated that my first matchmaker got fired for not doing her job. That was 2 weeks ago, and I haven't heard from Emily since. I have never regretted a decision more in my life and I will NEVER EVER EVER do anything this stupid again. Please take your $ and go buy yourself a great vacation or new outfits or give it to charity. Spending it on Elite is the worst thing you could do with it.

I fell for the same scam. I can't believe I spent $7,900 on this contract. I must have been very depressed on this day to do that and give them my credit card. Now I am paying 16.9% interest top of the $7,900 and it's been two months. How can we all be so stupid. The only advice I can give anyone is to keep writing these messages, hopefully we can save someone from the same pain.
